Porto’s Praia Dos Ingleses

By Gail Aguiar @ImageLegacy

It’s not difficult to imagine how the “Beach of the English” got its name. This neighbourhood by the sea was settled long ago by the British, who were drawn here by the port wine trade. It’s now one of Porto’s ritziest postal codes and a relaxing spot to unwind.

“Unwind” – Exhibit A, taken with my phone on the deck in the picture above:

Totally wiped out #IceTheDog today. We walked from Mercado de Matosinhos to Porto center along the beach. That's 10km. Plus more walking around. He will have exciting dreams tonight ?
